In recent years, home decorating brands have done a lot of research into the problems that novice DIY-ers face and have come up with a series of innovative solutions – pioneering technological advancements and trying to keep it simple too. The Erfurt Mav brand responsible for the Wallrock range are some of the leaders in this market place. Here we take a look at the science and statistics behind their Wallrock Thermal Liner.
So, what is Wallrock thermal lining paper? Well it's is a lining paper that is specially designed to insulate your home. Unlike regular lining paper, Wallrock thermal liner utilises aerospace technology to ensure heat within a room isn’t lost through the walls. The manufacturing process is rather complex and involves bonding an advanced thermal insulation material (which Erfurt Mav keep under wraps) with a durable, high quality lining paper. The result is a clever lining paper which can help insulate your home and thus save you money.
Here are the key factors that you need to know:
- It bounces heat back into the room – the unique design of Wallrock Natural Thermal Liner means that warm air is bounced back into the room from the walls. This ensures that the maximum amount of heat is retained in a room and this has a significant impact on the length of time it takes a room to heat up. Erfurt Mav obviously put this to the test when developing their liner and the results are that a room can heat up, up to 65% faster when lined with Wallrock Thermal Liner. In comparison, rooms left unlined will use around 20% of the heat to merely heat up the physical walls themselves.
- Rooms warm up quicker – we’ve already touched upon the fact that rooms heat up faster when Wallrock Thermal Liner is used so we thought you’d like to hear the actual facts and figures on this. In a study, two rooms with identical set ups and construction were heated to a temperature of 21 degrees. In the room with Wallrock Thermal Liner, the room hit the target temperature in just 25 minutes. In the identical room, without lining paper, the required temperature was not reached until 60 minutes into the experiment.
